We had a great 'Young Carers Quest for Cash Challenge' launch on 12th June. Teams signed up so far include:- DW Fitness First, De La Salle Secondary School, Young Carers Staff, Public Health
- St Helens Local Authority, Su Barton (our volunteer), Soroptimist Club St Helens. A HUGE thank you to those who attended the event and who have subsequently signed up, helping
us to raise money for our Young Carers.

The good news is - it's not too late to take part! If you have a team (it can be your work colleagues) that would like to take part, please contact Lorraine Pennington on 01744 677279 or e.mail on lorrainepennington@sthelencarers.org.uk. The idea behind the challenge is we give you a returnable £50.00 note as a starter fund for your team to then turn £50.00 into as much money as you can for Young Carers. The ideas so far are things like; an afternoon tea bake off, raffles, Spanish lessons with nibbles nights, sponsored walks, 5K park run, gin tasting evenings and many more.

What's more - if you sign up to the challenge you will receive a list of fundraising ideas - and we will invite you to a special event in December to recognise everyone's fundraising efforts.
